The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Eglise romane, mutilée et modifiée par une campagne de construction du milieu du 17e siècle. Son architecture date pour l'essentiel du 12e siècle (ou en partie de la fin du 11e siècle pour le croisillon nord). Le plan se compose d'une nef rectangulaire, d'une croisée de transept avec travée de choeur et abside semi-circulaire. Une chapelle rectangulaire à abside, en niche dans l'épaisseur du mur nord, forme le croisillon nord-ouest. La chapelle du sud-est est une adjonction. Le pavage de la nef subsiste au devant de l'édifice. Les quatre angles de la croisée possèdent des colonnes engagées à chapiteaux sculptés soutenant les doubleaux. Un clocheton arcade surmonte le mur-pignon de façade.

History
Romanesque church, mutilated and modified by a building campaign of the mid-17th century. Its architecture dates essentially from the 12th century (or in part from the end of the 11th century for the north arm of the transept). The plan consists of a rectangular nave, a crossing of transept with choir bay and semi-circular apse. A rectangular chapel with an apse, set in the thickness of the north wall, forms the north-west arm of the transept. The south-east chapel is an addition. The paving of the nave remains in front of the building. The four angles of the crossing have engaged columns with sculpted capitals supporting the ribs. A small arcaded bell-turret rises above the gable wall of the facade.
